Look at your commit charge/installed RAM ratio in the task manager (press alt + ctrl + del then on the security box select Task Manager. In Performance ensure that the Total Physical memory (K) exceeds the Total Commit Charge (K). If it doesn't then the computer is using the hard disk to "page" the memory which slows your computer right down.
